XP fails to install correct.

Hi.

 

When i'm installing windows XP on my I-8600, and tries to run Windoes update, it's failing. Windows update is saying that a failure has happened, and it cannot continue.

 

When im installing Norton Antivirus Windows is saying that " Installation was stopped due to an early fault" (I have translated the error from danish in to english)

    ~Pindski,

    Are you booting from the CD (making it first boot device)?

    Pindski,

    For the Windows Update problem look in the Windows Update.log file (in C:\Windows) for a numerical error. That error should correspond to one of the entries here.

    For the Norton Problem go here and click the "click here to SAVE YOURSELF TIME by using our FREE service" and see if it can provide help. If not, you can proceed to Symantec's other technical support offerings.

    LOL.

    OMG. I'm so embarrassed. The fault was, that the windows date was sat to the year 2099.

    That was why Windows update did'nt work and Norton did'nt want to install.

    :D

    Thanks for the help.
